Hi guys. It seems I've got some weird squares happening. This is from Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2. I understand this is a new game but a similar thing was happening in kingdoms of amalur when my character was in water.
Anyway there are a couple screenshots here: http://steamcommunity.com/id/stilli1988/screenshots/?appid=239250&sort=newestfirst&browsefilter=myfiles&view=imagewall

My specs are:
MSI r9 290x gaming graphics card
MSI z87-g45 motherboard
i5-4670k
G.Skill Ripjaws F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3
Western Digital WD Black WD2003FZEX 2TB
Silverstone Strider Plus 750W ST75F-P

Thanks for your help!
 
Lol just try some earlier video drivers than the ones currently out. Also try some other games like bf4 crysis 3 or far cry. If you get them in those games also even with different/older video drivers then there is a chance the gpu is faulty.
 
no that depends on drivers and what clocks its running at. Doesnt just mean its bad if he has it overclocked and it starts artifacting then it could very well be the overclocked speeds. If all you are going to keep saying is its a bad gpu then stop trying to answer peoples questions. Its not always just a bad gpu. Alot of the times especially with amd its bad drivers. Try actually helping when you answer.
